Hi RM786
I do hope the best of luck for you.....do not give up....and when appealing try not to make the same mistakes again.
From the information you have provieded, I will TRY to point out the mistakes you made in your visa application and why the visa officer has refused your wifes visa.
1) Accomodation: I think the visa officer wants to see an accomodation provided by you....not your parents. In all your paper work should have shown that you own the property (morgage or tenant). Otherwise they suspected that eventually you will be claiming some sort of housing benefit or other benefits etc....and your wife may become a burden on the UK benefits scheme.........
2) Bank Statement: I think the visa officer could not find any regular income.....there appeared no proof. It was just plain cash coming in....but from where?.....he needed to see where this income was coming from.....he could not find any employement income...and if its the self-employed income...then he could not identify that either. So he assumed that you can not financially support your wife with out a proper regular income.
The above is my interpretation of what might be stated in the offical visa rejection letter.
Can anyone else support my theory?........
However i do hope the best for you RM786....
keep us all updated on what the actual result letter stated...
